[nabs-l] summer camp jobs

[Ashley Bramlett]

Chris,
Thanks, can I write off list?
What music are you involved in? just singing?
I'll ask him if he has an age preference. I do not know if he would try 
sighted students at music camp.
I'll ask as I do agree this would open up more opportunities.

Keep in mind that we are in northern VA so the camp would have to be either 
in commuting distance or they would need to provide housing. I know when I 
went to camps that the counselors were provided housing as it was overnight, 
and counselors who were college students came from all over.
Are most music camps overnight or day camps?

Thanks.

Ashley

Ashley,

The only music camp I know of specifically for blind students is braille 
beats in Michigan. Though I haven't been to this camp, I've heard many good 
things about it and I'd like to go at some point. If Andrew is open to 
teaching at the mainstream music camp and does not want a camp just for 
blind kids, there are numerous music camps in the area. I could put him or 
you in contact with my voice teacher who is involved in some of them here in 
Maryland and DC. Also, what age range would he like to teach if any? I ask 
because this may be a cool opportunity for the kids in one of our bell 
programs. Just some thoughts for you to consider.
